teacher of mine mentioned to me today how he joined the monastery to clear his mind after having a nice car, good paying job, a beautiful fiance, pursuing a career in the medical field at MSU. a week before his final exams on his last semester before continuing at a med school, he decides to drop out, sell his car, give up all his clothing, call of the wedding and disappear for he had come to the conclusion that after having everything anyone could ask for, he was still not happy. his career would've obviously sent him into a more paying future, but he gave it all up deciding that money was not everything and better yet that the more we pursue it the more we fall into jealousy because there's always going to be something we can't have.
i would never join a monastery, i think that's some wild stuff. but i do believe that money is what fucks up this world. why cant we all just share everything we have, live equally with nobody being put at a higher level than another man. it's all bullshit what our society makes everyone feel like a piece of shit without school, or because he doesnt have a nice car, house, etc. fuck money and its bullshit.
